Honeywell Releases Energy-Efficient PTZ and Fixed Dome Cameras
ACUIX ES Delivers What Customers Asked for: Simpler Installation, Full Functionality at a Competitive Price
RUNCORN, UK, 1st April, 2009 – The latest addition to Honeywell’s (NYSE: HON)
line of pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) cameras is the ACUIX™ ES. Operating on less than 15
watts of power, the ACUIX ES is an energy efficient model that offers ease of
installation and operation.
“To make sure the ACUIX ES offers the maximum benefit for the greatest number
of installations, we incorporated the features our customers told us they
consider as the most critical,” said Chris Koetsier, global director of product
marketing for video systems at Honeywell. “In addition, this camera provides a
green solution for users who are sensitive to today’s critical environmental
issues and committed to consuming less energy.”
A mere 20.32 centimetres, the ACUIX ES has a reduced footprint that fits into
most surveillance environments. ACUIX ES simplifies installation by reducing the
number of parts installers must order. It includes an in-ceiling housing and a
surface-mount configuration; installers can further reduce the profile by using
an integral recessed mount. The surface-mount version also can be converted to a
pendant mount by using an additional pendant top cap which comes supplied.
The camera also streamlines operations through Honeywell’s IntelliBus™
technology, which allows users to remotely upload firmware to all domes and
securely store all camera settings such as labels, presets, tours and privacy
zones. The ACUIX ES is also equipped with many software features that increase
performance and make installation and operation easy:
- Password protection
prevents unauthorised users from changing system settings.
- Coax video and
two contact inputs are standard features.
- Multi-language menus are
provided for English, French, German, Dutch, Italian, Polish, and Spanish.
Perfect for indoor applications, the ACUIX ES line includes an 18X auto-focus
PTZ dome with 460 TVL and a fixed camera option utilising a 530 TVL camera with
a 2.8-10 mm Vari-focal Auto Iris lens.
The ACUIX ES also offers system flexibility and does not require owners to
invest in new equipment. It is fully compatible with all Honeywell digital video
recorders, encoders and matrix switchers and is backward compatible with all
existing Honeywell PTZ domes, in addition to many offered by third-party
manufacturers.
